Ah ha! What I see in your description is "pre-configured" versions of
the Makefiles (that's the Makefile.in). That's pretty typical to find
in a source repository snapshot of a source code distribution. The
autoconf, etc. set of tools (on Unix anyways) are used to convert the
GNU configure.in, Makefile.in, etc. into working files for a specific
environment.

Alas, I am uncertain what sort of tools are necessary to convert these
things on Windows. I presume they must be a part of Mingw <
